Experience as an addict and journey to recovery

Karuna Satori was only 15 years old when she tried Percocet. It is a powerful painkiller that includes oxycodone. Karun liked the numb high and kept doing it. She then went on to dab with LSD, shrooms, ecstasy, and heroin. On her 17th birthday, she tried snorting a now-banned form of OxyContin. It is one of the strongest opioids on the market made of pure oxycodone.

Then the next two years were a blur and when she was 19 years old, she was desperate to get clean. However, she was so hooked that she couldn’t sleep if she didn’t take a hit. Later, she started taking methadone as it was the government’s recommended replacement therapy for recovering addicts. Sadly, it was “liquid handcuffs” that kept her craving. She’s taken methadone every single day for seven years.

In the year 2012, she came across the whispering therapy on YouTube at the age of 20 years. At the age of 26 years, Satori was clean and has started her own ASMR channel that saved her life. In fact, she earns enough in advertising to support her husband and two children.

More details

ASMR was a breakthrough for her while she wanted to get clean. Watching these videos helped her fall asleep before she started craving another line of Oxycontin. Moreover, the impact of these ASMR videos was so powerful that she claims it was the key to getting clean.

These videos helped her regain her self-esteem alongside soothing her dependence on drugs. She shared on Daily Mail:

“As an addict, I felt worthless. When I started making videos, the praise I got from people in my family and everyone.”

In 2015 she hit a rough patch when the social services took her children after her father died. The kids were frequently left with her mother-in-law because her husband was working 12 hour days. Then one day she hit her husband and the cops were called. This was their first and last physical altercation as per her interview with Daily Mail.

Although a judge said she would never get her children back, she was gifted with the exception when she got back her children after two years of separation.

Relationship Status

Karuna Satori is a married woman and she is also the mother of two young kids. Her husband’s name is Victor and he is also an ASMRtist. Victor runs a channel named “Essence of ASMR”. The couple together has kids named Satori and Odin.

Talking about their relationship story, she met Victor when she joined a methadone clinic in early 2011. She was 19 years old back then and a year after joining the clinic, the two met each other. She shared on Daily Mail:

“They say never to get in a relationship with another recovering addict but it actually saved our lives and saved us a lot of pain and heartache for what addicts go through..”
